I'm a full-auto n00b and have just always taught that you needed $50K+ in order to get one and even then that the selection would be very limited.

Well as the year comes to an end and I begin to look at my budget for 2009 and even 2010 I'm planning on saving up to get either a Thompson or MP5 (both full-auto).
Doing a quick google search has left me with a ton of questions which I'm hoping some of you can help me with.
1) What is C&R? I've seen it on some of the listing for the Thompson but not others? Is C&R and C&R Eligible the same thing? Is it something that adds value to the weapon?
2) I was under the impression like I said in my disclaimer that MG are extremely $$$$. So why is this one listed for only $8k? (Yes $8K is a lot for a gun but when compared to some of the $40K prices I have seen...)

Why the others on the list are "call for price" which in my mind means if you don't list the price then it's real expensive and you probably can't afford.
3) How much should I set my savings goal before I can seriously begin to look for my new baby? I have about $3K saved up right now and figured within the next 2 years I can save another $20K to $25K. I could probably push for $30K but that is really pushing it.
How much do MP5 and Thompson run?
Thanks
